Go for the Bose Triport! It has MOAR of everything.

I don't think you're being very genuine, Miguel. While the Triports are pretty darned comfortable to wear, I really don't think their sound holds a candle to the other headphones being discussed.

I hope you were joking.  I KNOW Miguel was.

Here is my $00.2 without read all the post above, because I am at work.
 
So far on my book T1 has ruled out:
 
HD-800 stock and recable
HD-650 recable
HD-600 recable
DT-880 250om
DT-990
HE-5LE
Stax 404LE
D7000 recable
AT L3000
GS-1000
RS-1i
ED8 (but they have different fun)
 
 
 
 
Can't comment on LCD-2, since I have not heard them myself.

I guess the next question is in the days of the 650 v 880 what was your preference?

I found myself reach for 880 only for certain female vocal. But before T1 arrived I already gave the 880 to my dad. That's how much I "loved" the 880. Crap, the 880 was a birthday gift from my wife, so I could not put it up for sell, but give to my dad.
 
I also never 100% happy with HD650 either.

Guess what I still wonder is if the 800 is really that far from the 650 "sound" of great texture and richness if a little recessed treble and if the T1 is not still the 880 "sound" of being neutral if a little bright while being compressed robbing the music of energy?  In 06 it was a no contest for me, the O2 just destroyed both.  Just wonder sometimes if the 800 or T1 can compete?

I haven´t heard the 880 but boy did you describe the T1 good.
